The saw has a heavy duty, high quality construction that makes it rock steady and precise. It has double-clamping, self-centring vices so your workpiece is always secured in the optimum cutting position.

Like many chops it swivels to cut at 45° but unlike most chops it cunningly swivels both left and right making your life easier. It also boasts an oil bath gearbox, double head return springs, a 2-speed motor and an adjustable length stop bar.

The Chop Saw is accessible to all members who have passed an assessment for it and is one of the shared access metalwork machines.
